Description
Exhibits fatty acid elongase activity. Involved in fatty acid elongation, unsaturated fatty acid; long-chain fatty acid biosynthetic process; and very long-chain fatty acid biosynthetic process. Predicted to localize to integral component of endoplasmic reticulum membrane and integral component of plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in spinocerebellar ataxia type 38. Is expressed in several structures, including blood; digestive system; fat cell; pleuroperitoneal region; and yolk syncytial layer. Orthologous to human ELOVL5 (ELOVL fatty acid elongase 5).
